Jodi Ettenberg was born in Montreal and has been eating her way around the world since April 2008. She is the author of the recently published Food Traveler’s Handbook. She is also the founder of Legal Nomads, which chronicles worldwide travel and food adventures, and is a contributing editor for Longreads.

The mountains I lost, the memories I found

August used to be the month that I looked forward to, a promise of adventure and new challenges. My birthday is midway through the month, and long before I quit my job to travel the world I had a tradition of climbing a mountain every year to celebrate.

Quotes by Jodi Ettenberg  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The confluence of people, smells and tastes that you are privy to merely by eating on the street is very special. And it is not something that can be replicated indoors. If food is a lens through which to see the world, a seat at one of those tiny tables offers the best view.”
Jodi Ettenberg, The Food Traveler’s Handbook

“Every place is a goldmine. You have only to give yourself time, sit in a teahouse watching the passers-by, stand in a corner of the market, go for a haircut. You pick up a thread – a word, a meeting, a friend of a friend of someone you have just met – and soon the most insipid, most insignificant place becomes a mirror of the world, a window on life, a theatre of humanity.”
Tiziano Terzani, A Fortune-Teller Told Me: Earthbound Travels in the Far East

Christopher G. Moore Hi Jodi,


Thank you for following me on GoodReads. Tiziano Terzani was an old friend from years ago. What a wonderful spirit that man possessed. You would have loved to have talked with him. Best, Christopher
